Abstract

Space is three-dimensional only, and consists of infinitesimals. Infinitesimals are points of location, without area, shapeless, indivisible, continuous in all directions. Nothing inconsistent with them, such a square circle, can exist. There is no microscopic infinity. Knowing that they exist provides the answer to the mystery of irrational numbers, asymptotes, "infinite series," and much else.
